The scheme is risky: the Gestapo retains a terribly efficient network to identify and capture spies and deserters. Moreover, it is not clear that "Tiger", who does not mind any dirty work as long as the price is right, and war-weary "Happy", who might be easily betrayed by his feelings, are dependable agents. After Tiger and another American agent are successfully infiltrated, Happy is parachuted in Bavaria.

An agreement in the spirit of a Greater Germany, as demanded by Emperor Franz Joseph, was out of the question for Bismarck, who had been Prussian Prime Minister since 1862. For him, unity was only conceivable under Prussian leadership and without Austria. The two great powers still fought together in the war against Denmark (1864). Two years later, the separation from Austria was completed in the German War.
